I'm afraid Big 10 has too many declining programs for Indiana to get all the way to the bottom, but agree that either NY recruit would bring back memories of McGuire walking in and getting George Thompson from NY to start the streak.

Richard, you young pup. When McGuire was head coach, he and a back-up guard from Waukesha went at it in practice one day.

McGuire decked him. Next thing you know, the guard got up and after a minute, practice restarted.

People are just too sensitive today.

May I ask, Mr. Richard, what will it take to make you happy. Are you an MU professor still resentful that the basketball coach is the highest paid employee of Marquette Univresity? Or are you just a gloomy gus trying to incite anger?

Richard please find a new university to rip apart you must be one unhappy person by the amount of negativity you generate. I'll tell you about an altercation I also saw first hand during the McGuire years at half time between McGuire and Bernard Toone it amounted to a chair throwing shoving brawl that ended up lighting a fire in Bernard and he had the NCAA Tourny game of his life. Richard give some credit were credit is due Buzz is doing some good things with a short tenure,time will tell. You need to do a little research can you read?? explopre past your self centered mind Marquette is being mentioned by some very talented high school basketball players. WHO ARE YOU TO PASS JUDGEMENT about an altercation are you an expert in human character, let me guess you have a degree in human nature. Congrats to MU and Buzz at this early start he has more than stopped the bleeding caused by our last self cented coach who left in the cloak of darkness.

I second that notion. I hated Buzz' hire, BUT...said I'd be glad to be proven wrong and hope that I am becasue I love MU.

I don't see how any unbiased person can say that at this point - considering he hasn't even coached a game yet - that Buzz hasn't done a good job so far.

To borrow the lame saying, he's taken the lemons and made lemonade. True, he has some juco guys here, but so did Tommy C. And, if those guys can graduate and are better than the transfers TC got, things will continue to look good for MU...provided he can coach.
